DishPro adapters are not required for any receivers running legacy LNBs. In order to run 4 receivers with a Dish500 system with 2 dual legacy LNBs, you would need an SW44 switch. Or you could swap the 2 dual for a legacy Quad LNB.

OR two multiswitches and then run the feeds to SW21s.

Try going to www.switchinfo.info/index.htm and correctly identify what you have for equipment then you may also find the answer to your problem.
